Second Vargr Diaspora

A period of Vargr history from -2400 to about -1700.

Description[edit]

This period started with the discovery[footnotes 1] of jump-3 technology by the Gvurrdon Hvaek and ended with the collapse of the Vargr and Vilani states into the Long Night.

The Vargr Pillaging (the Diaspora's other name) was characterised by an extended period of general lawlessness and piracy that spilled out of the Vargr Extents and into much of the rest of Charted Space.

Footnotes[edit]

  1. Some Vargr tales (e.g. the Gvurrdon Epic) suggest that this was reverse engineered from captured Zhodani ships captured by Vargr Corsairs
